From specification to soul – the craft behind calm.
Creating The Padded Cell is not about building walls. It is about building balance. Every screw, wire, and ceiling tile represents an act of conscious craftsmanship — a team of people at Specified Contracts translating a philosophy of wellness into physical form.
This is where engineering meets emotion. Where a fit out becomes a feeling.

The Why – Wellbeing in Every Conversation
At Specified Contracts, we believe in one simple philosophy: Wellbeing in Every Conversation.
It is not a tagline. It is a way of working.
Every discussion, every decision, every coordinated detail on this project came back to one question — how will someone feel when they step into this space?
The Padded Cell was built to help people find balance, recover, and reconnect with their best selves. From those healing from addiction to elite athletes chasing recovery, it was our job to build the environment where that healing begins.

The Build – From Site to Sanctuary
The images below capture the journey — from the raw, unfiltered reality of construction to the refined calm of completion.
Each stage represents the same core truth: what you build on the outside shapes how people feel on the inside.
Highlights
• Tecsound acoustic boarding installed to create serenity in sound.
• Bespoke timber panelling crafted to control acoustics and elevate design.
• Grid ceilings coordinated with lighting, air conditioning, and fire systems.
• Meticulous detailing of bulkheads, track lighting, and finish alignment.
• Treatment rooms, gym floor, and studio areas purpose-built for flow.

The Three Spaces – A Human Blueprint
Body – The Gym & Treatment Rooms
Built for strength, recovery, and flow. Precision in the details, purpose in every line.
Mind – The Zero Lounge
A space of stillness and reflection. Every light, every texture, every sound tuned to calm the nervous system and invite presence.
Soul – KRUSSH Studio
A creative sanctuary for expression and truth. A room where sound engineering meets emotional resonance.
Together, these spaces allow human beings to optimise, recover, and reconnect.

The Outcome – What Is Your Why
This build is not only a project. It is a statement of intent.
It proves what can happen when specification meets soul — when the technical meets the emotional, and when a team builds not only for function, but for feeling.
At Specified Contracts, our why is simple. We build spaces that make people feel better inside them.

A Safe Space to Go Inside.
